Concept introduction: The elimination reaction is the organic reaction in which two substituents are removes from the organic molecule in one step or two steps. The two mechanism of the elimination reaction are E1 and E2 mechanism.
In E2 mechanism, the elimination takes place in one step.
The dehydrohalogenation reaction of the organic compound results in the formation of alkenes. They occur by the elimination of hydrogen halide.
The stereo specificity is the property of the reaction that the formation of different stereo isomeric products formed from the different stereo isomeric reactants.
To determine: The alkenes and the chemical reactions for the formation of these alkenes when

- Select all molecules which are chiral. Brarrow_forwardUse the reaction coordinate diagram to answer the below questions. Type your answers into the answer box for each question. (Watch your spelling) Energy A B C D Reaction coordinate E A) Is the reaction step going from D to F endothermic or exothermic? A F G B) Does point D represent a reactant, product, intermediate or transition state? A/ C) Which step (step 1 or step 2) is the rate determining step? Aarrow_forward1. Using radii from Resource section 1 (p.901) and Born-Lande equation, calculate the lattice energy for PbS, which crystallizes in the NaCl structure. Then, use the Born-Haber cycle to obtain the value of lattice energy for PbS. You will need the following data following data: AH Pb(g) = 196 kJ/mol; AHƒ PbS = −98 kJ/mol; electron affinities for S(g)→S¯(g) is -201 kJ/mol; S¯(g) (g) is 640kJ/mol. Ionization energies for Pb are listed in Resource section 2, p.903. Remember that enthalpies of formation are calculated beginning with the elements in their standard states (S8 for sulfur). The formation of S2, AHF: S2 (g) = 535 kJ/mol. Compare the two values, and explain the difference. (8 points)arrow_forward
